Key Club News:

  • We will be making sandwiches after school on Thursday, November 6th. Thank you for all of the financial donations to help defray the cost of the bread, gloves, jam, peanut butter, and cereal!   If you still prefer to send in the supplies-that is fine, too.
  • Well, it has begun to cool off, so we are now collecting gently used outerwear for our friends who visit the Daily Bread. Please bring in any of the following items: warm blankets, coats, gloves, mittens, scarves, sleeping bags, sweaters, coats, etc.
  • The local animal shelters are in need of gently used towels and blankets for their homeless pets. If anyone wants to send these in, we will deliver them to the various shelters in our area on Thursday, November 6th.

---Please consider doing what you can. The Key Club really could not accomplish anything without the assistance of the entire Holy Cross School Community. Thanks so much for your continued generosity and support of our mission to serve the needy in the greater Lynchburg area!!!

SCHOLASTIC BOOK FAIR NOV 7-12: The Scholastic book fair begins this Friday in the elementary library! Students will have an opportunity to browse the book fair on Friday, Nov. 7th to make a wish list of books from the fair. With guidance from volunteer parents and teachers, we encourage students to list a few books that they find interesting. There are always some non-book items at the fair as well. We will limit the number of those put out during the preview to encourage students to look at books but all items will be available for purchase the following week. The schedule for the fair is as follows:

  • Mon. Nov. 10th - 8:00-3:00 All classes will have opportunity to shop
  • Mon. Nov. 10th- 3:00-4:00 After school snack & shop. **
  • Tues. Nov. 11th- 6:00-7:00 Family night at book fair and PTO meeting **
  • Wed. Nov. 17th- Early bird -donuts & shopping: 7:45 -10:00a.m.**

** Before and after school shopping- register to win free books!

Holy Cross will profit 25% of the sales from the fair to be used for library!

 

If you can help at the fair during any of the above hours, or can donate a food item/drink for the family/after school hours, contact Mrs. Main hmain@hcrs-va.org Thanks to the many parents and grandparents who have already volunteered!
